"Hi Everyone!
Thanks so much for your interest in the Saltdean Boot Sale Walk.
I'm Rachel and I'm a Saltdean resident. I'm not part of a community organisation or anything like that.
I'm simply a local who loved last years boot sale so much, that I decided to organise one for us all.
There is no charge for taking part and I'm giving my time for free. The only thing I ask is that people make a small donation to our local NHS fundraiser and do their bit to promote the event, so that everyone can have a successful day.
Happy selling!"

PLEASE NOTE!
As Saltdean is a big place, some of the past Boot Sales have only focused on certain areas of Saltdean (eg West) but as so many of you have shown an interest and mentioned that you were planning on hosting a table top sale anyway, i've opened it up for everyone. This does mean though that some areas may find it more challenging to attract shoppers than others, especially if it is a long walk to your home.
Here are some suggestions that may help you attract shoppers...
-
Get your whole street to participate. This way you have a better chance of attracting more shoppers!
-
Sell some AMAZING items and promote them online. It doesn't just have to be unwanted stuff.Artists and creators are also welcome to sell their designs. You can even use it as a day to promote your business. It's totally up to you!
-
Become a promoter for your area of Saltdean and send people to this website for all the information.
-
Join forces with a friend who has a stall in a more central location.
-
Print out the event poster and put a copy in your front window, or at your place or work.
-
Put up balloons or bunting and make your property stand out.
-
Make a real day of it and combine the sale with a street get together!
Don't forget to have some cash on the day!
